Ruby on Rails Developer

Craftybase is an inventory MRP solution focused on the specific needs of small, independent direct-to-consumer (DTC) manufacturing businesses. We're a small, agile company working remotely across the globe, and our mission is to help small makers achieve big things.

We're a long-standing, stable, and proudly independently profitable company that believes in growing a business sustainably and responsibly. To do this, we aim to build products that stand the test of time and serve a real need and purpose. We are in it for the long haul.

You are someone who has

• Commercial experience in working on a significantly sized, complex system as a developer working primarily in a Rails environment
• Strong experience with wrangling APIs - we have several integrations that need constant care and attention due to inevitable versioning changes (looking at you, Shopify!).
• Excellent organizational and prioritization skills; we'd love you to help us level up our processes where possible
• A keenness to occasionally work outside your comfort zone, which may include learning new and old technologies to get the job done.
• A willingness to pitch in and help fix technical support issues when required
• The ability to be pragmatic where required for us to ship code and deliver customer value (whilst still maintaining high quality)
• A self-motivated, creative, and solutions focussed mindset
• A good grasp of written English

It would be a bonus if you also have experience with:

• TailwindCSS, Hotwire, Stimulus, and Turbo (...we're in the process of implementing a new UI)
• Queue processing architectures (we use Sidekiq extensively)
• ThinkingSphinx / Manticore / Sphinx for full-text search and filtering
• jQuery, CSS, and legacy Rails bits and pieces (...we still have old features to support)
• SQL and arel
• Working in and communicating well within a time-zone distributed, remote team (we have team members all around the globe!)

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Family-friendly, flexible ways of working
• Join a small, merry band of people that like to get things done
• Work on software used and loved by thousands of small makers
• Fully remote arrangement (we have no "head office")

At Craftybase, we strongly believe in diversity and equality and thus encourage people from all backgrounds, abilities, experiences and ages to apply.
